I believe that your guess is correct unless Prof Smith went for a clinical retread. It should be noted that Prof Smith is teaching at a Canadian college and the U.S. ADA laws don't apply to him though there may be relevant Canadian law on this point (I'll leave it to a Canadian Tipster to educate us about the relevant issues). I also believe that he teaches at a private college which means that they can make all sorts of arbitrary decisions and rules (again, Canadian Tipster might be able to clarify the situation.. That being said, I think that Prof Smith is just attempting to become the Canadian Michael Sylvester. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
